Optimizing SAP Availability and Data Protection
Today’s enterprise is application and data driven. Business-critical applications like SAP rely on data to be available around the clock. Any disruptions have an immediate and visible impact on the core business. With the amount of SAP data growing rapidly and demand on those databases rising, ensuring availability and protecting valuable SAP data assets is becoming increasingly difficult. To succeed,administrators need tools that help them achieve maximum efficiency. Backups must occur regularly and with minimal impact; restores must be lightning quick; data cloning for testing and development must be non-disruptive; and full SAP database recovery, should it be necessary, must occur in minutes, not hours or days.
